Intertwining language, culture, and music

Believe, I shall…

I believe in the sun, and the warm it exudes. I believe in the moon, the stars, and space. In the sound of the wind against my face. The chill of winter on a morning’s breath

I believe in the heart, emotions palpitating…In the sea and its temperamentI believe in starting clean, and the opportunities it can bring.In children’s smile on Christmas day

I believe in the fall, the grace in nature’s death

Flamboyán Leaves

I believe in the spring, the phoenix’s birth In the meadow, the forest, the burning heats of men…

I believe in the cloud terrain after the kiss of rainthe shadows if a flamboyan tree under it’s restI believe in the torments that life brings in the act of weeping, the mourning of a death

I believe in the sun, and the warm it exudesI believe in the crater of the moon, in the rouge meteors that scar the skyI believe in the frigid winter winds against my skinfreezing my bones, and frosting my soul

But most importantlyI believe in you…

Author’s Notes: Here you have my first poem of 2014. I was inspired by the Composer Ola Gjeilo’s “Across the vast eternal Sky”. Something I have learned about life in the last couple of months is that we should never stop believing… I hope you enjoy. Happy New Year!

Poetry v. Music

“Music is an art of poetry; and poetry is the raw form of music, especially popular music. A song that transcends times is for its lyrics. A good poet evokes emotions, feelings and experiences that you may have had in the past… A master poet/true poet does that, but he/she makes you view the world in a different way.He/She makes you feel his/her experiences even if you haven’t experienced them.He/She makes you cry and laugh and stare in awe at his/her word choice, imagery and rhyme, while you get transported to another realm where time stops for awhile.”
